Any/All,
In our VMS environment it is <SID>_ALERT.LOG.  Just in case someone was
curious....

Raj,
All the UNIX platforms I have worked on (about 6 so far), the name has
been
alert_<SID>.log. On my NT workstation it is <SID>ALRT.log. I have not
found
a way to name the alert log any different. You can check if the
background
dest has a 'forward' slash then use alert_<SID>.log else <SID>ALRT.log
for
NT. Not sure how it is done on Comapq VAX/VMS VAX/Alpha. But I can find
that
out, if that is needed.
